History Goes Bump: Ghost Tours For The Mind

The earliest forms of language were symbols and pictographs. Cuneiform symbols made up the earliest known languages of Sumerian and Akkadian. Egyptian hieroglyphs are considered the next oldest language. So for humans, symbols have always carried a high level of importance. Symbols can transcend time and culture and be interpreted by future generations. Although the meanings of symbols can change with time as well. Cemeteries are full of symbols and on this episode of Stones and Bones, we are going to share the meaning behind many of them.

Horror movies are a Halloween tradition. Many of us spend Halloween night pursuing a good scare via the medium of film. There have been dozens of horror sub-genres and many of these hit their stride in the 1980s. In our opinion, the 1980s was the pinnacle of horror movies. There have been many great movies since, but there was just something special about that decade. Join us for a fun conversation about the horror movies of the 1980s on the HGB Halloween Special 2024!

The Monte Cristo Homestead is located in Junee, New South Wales in Australia. This Victorian era home sat at the top of the hill overlooking the town the owner helped found. The house knew success and it knew tragedy. The beautiful exterior is deceptive as the interior holds many haunts. Most people claim that this is the most haunted house in Australia. Join us as we share the history and hauntings of the Monte Cristo Homestead!

The most unexplored areas of the earth are its vast waterways. Humans can't breath underwater and thus our explorations of the seas are very limited. We often wonder if stories about mysterious and sometimes ferocious sea creatures are inspired by our imaginings of what could be below the surface of the water or if they are based on true experiences. When deep sea explorations do manage to send back pictures, some very unique and weird creatures are revealed. They help to make some of the legends we have heard about monsters in the water, more believable. On this episode, we are going to explore the myths and legends and possible true stories of sea monsters. The Moment in Oddity features the Cornell Pumpkin and This Month in History features Dizzy Gillespie.

The McCormick Ranch is located in a remote part of the Eastern Plains in Stratton, Colorado. Mike McCormick and his father worked the property with the help of homeless men they hired during the 1980s. No one can be sure if these homeless men were actually paid for their work because many of them ended up dead. The ranch was the perfect place for serial killers to do their dastardly deeds as no one would hear the victims scream. Several bodies were found on the property, but not all of them, and that may be why this ranch is crawling with paranormal activity.

A bench, hewn from natural wood, that is located in one of our featured cemeteries reads, "Here I sit broken-hearted, thinking about, our dearly departed." And that is why we have cemeteries. To remember our dearly departed family and friends. For those of us that wander these cities of the dead, we make new friends along the way as we stop and read a headstone here and there. A life remembered for a brief moment. We give that to the dead when we stop and care. And in some cemeteries, our efforts do not go in vain as we are watched and surveyed from beyond the veil. On this haunted cemeteries episode, we feature haunted cemeteries in Arizona; Alabama; Ontario, Canada; Prague, Czech Republic; South Dakota and two St. Mary Churchyard's in London, Britain. The Moment in Oddity features The Giant's Causeway and This Month in History features the bombing of St. Paul's Cathedral.

The Ohio State Reformatory in Mansfield was originally meant to help wayward young men get back on the right road. The beautiful Gothic reformatory built of iron and limestone is so picturesque that it was used as a location in the movie, "The Shawshank Redemption." What happened to many of the residents of this building was anything but beautiful, and certainly was not about truly reforming young men. Stories that include torture, beatings and other misdeeds are numerous. And wherever strong emotions are built up, we usually find some kind of unexplained phenomenon. Join us as we explore the history and hauntings of the Ohio State Reformatory!

It also was the scene of several suicides after the Stock Market Crash. And for that reason, despite its historic charm, there are many ghosts hanging around the hotel.

One of the more difficult tasks that humans have had to face since the dawn of our era on this dusty little planet is what to do with our dead. Various cultures have worked out a variety of ways to accomplish this task. There are cave burials, fiery boat launches, cliff side burials, canopy burials, burials at sea, above ground crypts, traditional in-ground burials and the list goes on. On this inaugural episode of Stones and Bones, we are going to discuss these methods and the history of burial grounds.
